Jay-Z and Kanye West are two of the biggest names in the rap game right now. After combining their talents, they have become the biggest group too!

For the first award of the night, The Throne took home the trophy for "Best Group" at the 2012 BET Awards. The veteran performers beat out newcomers Mindless Behavior, Rick Ross' Maybach Music Group, Diddy Dirty Money and Bad Meets Evil.

That's a lot of tough competition on their heels, so Jay-Z and Kanye definitely need to Watch The Throne next year!

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
